    Nice locomotive

    Great locomotive! Even though it has the same horn as the NS SD70 it’s definitely worth the price!

    I love everything about this model except for one thing- Since I got it and put it in game, every time I move near it once the map is loaded it causes the game to crash. I’ve tried adjusting the quality of the game, and my build is SP5. So… kinda sad I can’t really play trainz properly with this model.

    There were some features that I never thought I would see in a pay ware type locomotive, the attention to detail, and the inside of the cab, just looking at the pictures convinced me that it would be worth the money that I spent on it. 5 STARS without a doubt

    Looks great, but Crashes the game completely

    This Locomotive is hands down beautiful but i’ve been having crash issues with the locomotive even as simple as panning around it crashes the game. NOTE: I have submitted a support ticket to find a fix but here’s what I know :

    Pros:
    Very detailed Locomotive
    Has Potential to have startup & Shutdown scripts
    The Engine it’s sounds Soooooooooooooo good the bass even feels good
    The Custom cab is the most detailed cab i’ve ever seen.

    Cons:
    I don’t know why but the locomotive has a issue to crash the game completely so you can’t really put it on the track and use it without it crashing your game. I’m hoping this issue can be fixed when possible because I have more liking in this locomotive then the bad. I’ll have a updated review once i get a fix for it.

    Really Nice-looking Locomotive as that’s all it is. The SD70ACu is one of the Most known units of Norfolk Southern from Rail Fans and it’s a shame that literally nothing in cab works as it was a Huge missed opportunity when this unit was made, switches could have been added to the backwall or even on the control stand for Number Boards or Walkway Lights but Nope, besides opening closing doors and windows the Throttle, Reverser, both brakes & Dynamic, Horn, Bell and Sand, Headlight working is the only in cab working things is just sad. Not crazy for the 1 button push Distance Counter which is the only thing that works on MFD screen, no working wipers or sun visors, none of any switches work anywhere in cab, so confused can’t throw the Emergency Brake lever on conductors’ side but all the seats swivel around instead makes No sense. I Love NS but can’t give this Unit 5 Star’s as I would like to as it’s very Plain and just Pretty Looking it’s something Dovetail would release is how I see it.

    February 21 2023 review update:
    So this is a updated review of this locomotive the “EMD SD70-ACU” locomotive and I only have more bad news so, To start off No the issue of this locomotive crashing the game has not been fixed I have contacted the support team about the issue and i’ve loved the help they bringed to me, But this didn’t fix any issues with the product so I gave up competely on fixing it. This issue is also affecting my EMD SD70 ACC Link: https://jointedrail.com/product/emd-sd70acc-norfolk-southern/ It has the same problems that this locomotive has.

    If you want to try what support team said to try to fix it:
    – Reinstall graphics Drivers or update them
    – Update your audio drivers or install them
    – Submit asset

    What i’ve tried:
    Changed pc parts
    Reinstalled my OS
    Updated my drivers audio and grapics drivers
    Submit Asset

    I went as far to change PC parts to no avail so unfortunately I wasted $31 in bad working locomotives I’m starting to think it is a incompatibility with the game and the asset but i’m not wasting another $70 for a new game to see if the fault is happening there too. This not to be bad review I want this review to be looked, as criticism not in a bad way.
